Further to its previous comments the Committee notes the Government's explanations concerning the granting of meal vouchers. It also notes under section 19bis of the Royal Order of 28 November 1969, as amended by the Royal Order of 31 January 1994, an allowance in the form of a meal voucher is considered as pay if it is granted as a replacement or conversion of pay, bonuses, allowances in kind or other allowances.

Furthermore, the Committee notes the Government's indication that Parliament is currently debating a Bill on meal vouchers. It therefore asks the Government to provide information on any development in this respect.
